This is not a very good photo, but it is the only one I have. I got this bike in September 2007. It is an almost-entirely stock 2008 Kona Paddy Wagon. I took off the rear brake and added a cross lever for the front brake. I like riding the hoods, so I left the dummy rear brake lever on.
I'm happy with it as it is. I'm sure some stuff'll get busted as I ride and maybe I'll upgrade then. For now, though, I like it. Everything works well. My girlfriend calls it "Steely Dan: The Bike."
Have a nice day!
